In my opinion, the front wheel, tire, and fender on my America look a little out of proportion to the rest of the bike. I'd like to have a little fatter tire (slightly wider, and slightly taller sidewall) and a beefier fender to match (something with a little more "valance")

Before I start off on this long journey of discovery, anyone care to point me in the right direction? Tried anything that didn't work? Have the ultimate solution already?

Anyone know how much larger I can go on the tire and keep the stock wheel (18 x 2.5)?

All suggestion and comments are welcome, even the smarta** ones if for nothing else than entertainment value.
